A FITTER BRITAIN
CAMPAIGN TO BE LAUNCHED. (United Press Association—By Electric •Telegraph.—Copyright.) (British Official Wireless.) Received August 12, 11.55 a.m. RUGBY, Aug. 11. The National' Advisory Council for Physical Training and Recreation is now launching a campaign for a fitter Britain. The council’s aim is by encouraging the growth of the desire for personal fitness and extending the facilities for all forms of physical recreation to show the way to increased health and happiness to citizens of all ages. The council makes a strong appeal for the co-operation of the public, recognising—in conformity with the voluntary principle accepted and approved by the Government and Parliament in the recent Act—that only widespread acceptance of the new ideal of physical fitness will yield the results which the Government had in view in promoting tho scheme.
